Frederick Luther Fane. Essex, London County & England 1895-1922. Excellent studio portrait of Fane taken on the M.C.C. tour of Australia in 1907/08. Fane is pictured wearing suit and tie. The photograph nicely signed in black ink by Fane to the image. The photograph measures 5”x7.5”. The photograph appears to have been laid down in the past, so card and adhesive marks to verso, rough irregular edge to the photograph, slight silvering to image otherwise in good condition. A rare studio portrait of the player from the tour. Formerly from the cricket collection of Sydney Francis Barnes, Warwickshire, Lancashire, Staffordshire, England & Wales 1894-1930.
